ANKARA (Sputnik) - Turkiye expects that US President-elect Donald Trump will stop supplying weapons to Israel, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday.
"I would say that a good start for Mr. Trump's goal would be to stop the supply of weapons to Israel in order to stop Israeli aggression in the Palestinian and Lebanese territories. Any step in support of Israel's expansionist ambitions could increase tensions in the region and expand conflict zones," Erdogan told reporters on the plane returning from Budapest.
Countries outside the region should take into account all these risks when forming their Middle East policy, the president said.
"The Trump presidency will have a serious impact on the political and military balance in the Middle East. All steps aimed at establishing peace and stability in the region will benefit the building of global peace," Erdogan stressed.
